Anyone know where to buy aftermarket springs for the Kickstand?

I was riding yesterday and the springs broke. I could only locate one of them.
They are roughly 3.5" in length. The coil part is 2 inches in length and approximately .5" wide.

I want to ride with spares because it the kickstand fails it sucks to walk home with it draging.

this related thread may help -

i always carry a couple velcro straps and zip ties for similar temporary emergency fixes.

I just got my radwagon 4 for Mother's Day and have the Thule yepp seat. Can anyone help me understand how to better maneuver the kickstand? Right now I'm basically lifting up the bike with my 18mo old on the back to get the kickstand down and take him out of his seat. I'm not that strong and this doesn't seem like the correct action. Thanks!!

try this:

while on the bike, push down on the kickstand with your foot.

when the kickstand makes contact with the ground slowly roll bike backwards continuing to push down on the kickstand with your foot until the kickstand locks into place.

...but, in your case, would likely work best with assistance.

So after a ride last week with my wife we made it 39 miles with the stock rad battery, making it back just short of our car before the batteries cut off.
I've decided to upgrade our batteries on our bikes to get greater range. We will be getting 4 batteries, 2 each, so we both can bring a spare. I've been looking at the 52v batteries to get the most range.

We have already upgraded to the Bolton controller and Bafang 750 motor. (Radrover 5 and Radrunner Plus)

I'm looking at the Fat shark 52v 17.5ah batteries and noticed different Bms(30 and 40)and different max burst/max discharge amps(50,60 and 85a)
I don't really care about more power/speed so much(although it wouldn't hurt ), as most of our riding is on a mostly level rail trail using pedal assist 2 and the controller and motor upgrade has made any of the steep hills around my neighborhood no problem.
Would any of these outputs make much of a difference in range using only pedal assist? (with limited throttle use)
Would the 85a max burst be to much for a 35a controller?

Thanks!

the battery with the highest max burst rate will likely have a slight speed and range advantage.

the max burst rating of a battery is the max power the battery can provide for short periods. the max draw of the 35a controller is 35a. as long as the max burst rating of the battery is well over 35a there should be no issues.

Pinstripes to accentuate the fender.

Nice!

...as other forum members have noted, it's usually much easier to contact the rad power folks via telephone.

i've also found that to be the case.

as domitron noted: "Spoke with Jonathan today at Rad Rover customer support (this was the first time I'd called rather than messaged them).  He said they are just really busy...".

Easy to use trailer. We ended-up with a brand-new trailer simply because our rowdy dog caused the wheel to scrape the tent. Rover sent us a brand-new trailer! Our Corgi mix is extremely bull-headed and insists on being in charge - Thus, being in a trailer is not his thing.

So here's a new trailer in a never-opened box! I just pulled some specs from their website and it is sold out. They're asking $99.99 for them. I'll knock $10 off and ship in the US for free.

Here are some features from their site. Of course, you can go to their site for more info and pics. I'll answer any questions I can. When he wasn't barking his head off and jumping all around in it, it was a pleasure to tow him. Bike handled great with it.

Element and weather-resistant fabric and 2-in-1 canopy and mesh shielding so your dog can enjoy the ride without pesky critters getting in the way
Unique folding frame and low maintenance, easy-to-remove, 16 inch, 1-piece molded nylon wheels with air-filled tires. Tires easily inflate with standard bike pump. Do not over inflate
Compatible with nearly all adult bicycles with included coupler. Fits 20"-29" wheels
Includes internal leash to keep your pup safe and secure while along for the ride
Rear doggy door provides easy entry and exit and securely zips for added safety. Plus, store treats, toys, and everything else you need with Rover Waggin's pooch-pouch!
Interior dimensions: 30"L x 19"W x 17"H
Maximum weight capacity 50 lbs
Not recommended for bikes with thru-axles

My wife has a 2020 Rad step thru.  She hit a curb a few weeks ago and bent the front rim.  After changing out the entire front wheel assembly, the steering is still a little sticky.  Any suggestions on what to check for troubleshooting?

I really appreciate any suggestions.

a good place to start -

remove the cap stem / headset bolt - verify as not bent

remove headset and carefully drop fork (noting number of bearings, washers, spacers and positions of same) - verify headset bearings are not damaged and spacers / washers present are not bent or damaged

look down fork steering tube - verify no damage or misalignment of star nut.

any others care to chime in with suggestions?

received the mirrors, thanks much!

these will be mounted on a friend's radrunner 1.

he was involved in an accident a couple weeks ago and damaged both mirrors.

so the timing is perfect!

That is the choice of you want your middle 2nd gear close to what you have for a single speed now with the addition of a lower gear as well as an overdrive or higher gear. This needs to be your decision based on what you need or want from your Radrunner1. Efneo is absolutely wonderful for answering questions such as the, I recommend emailing them.

thanks again! i will be traversing terrain very similar to what you described. which option did you choose?

wkindred, as noted in my post I'm using a grip shift. There is no way to install a belt on the Radrunner1 so I'm using a chain.

thanks! yeah, i realize no belt but the order page has additional options under the "chain / belt" heading so i'm wondering if i should choose option "Chainring 38T"?
